Ghost shrimp
The semi-translucent shells of these minuscule crustaceans make them nearly as transparent as the glass aquariums in which they are sometimes kept. In the wild, different species can be found in rivers and lakes throughout the world, including the central United States.
The animal is so clear in appearance that it only has color after it has eaten a colorful meal, which is typically plant-based and, therefore, usually green.

I have one of these in my aquarium. They only cost about 33 cents at the pet store...they're neat to watch.
Gosh, it looks so frail. Which is probably a trick of reflecting light or something like that s most transperant objects are not as fragile as they look. Reinforced glass for instance can withstand bullets.
This looks like the crayfish we use to cook our soups in Africa. Although, ours is a golden brown color when dried out.
woah, its just not-so-out-of-this-world !
